What Is One Health?
One Health is a collaborative, multisectoral, and transdisciplinary approach — working at the local, regional, national, and global levels — with the goal of achieving optimal health outcomes recognizing the interconnection between people, animals, plants, and their shared environment.
One Health is the idea that professionals across all fields of expertise can work together interconnected and united under the effort to support global health recognizing the connection between animal health, human health, and the environment.
 Collaboration within professionals from various disciplines is necessary to find solutions to complex shared health threats like antimicrobial resistance, the global food crisis, zoonotic/emerging diseases and more.
Uniting Professionals Across Disciplines
To approach and overcome complex health issues, One Health must be embraced across disciplines hence our organization fosters communication through speaker conferences and symposiums between professionals from diverse health fields: for example, physicians, veterinarians, nurses, environmentalists, dentists, ecologists, public health practitioners, and other health professionals.
